#3GoodThings @3GoodThings, Saturday edition:

1. Added two new lamps to the living room (rearranged from other spaces) and it is so much better and brighter for these early-darkening days in the northern hemisphere. Should also add to this: I am appreciating electricity!
2. I am transcribing bits from an old travel journal into my nanowrimo manuscript which I thought might feel like cheating on word count, but it has ended up being a very creative springboard and I’m realizing I have been collecting novel bits all my life. The weave of past writing with current focus is quite delightful and not at all like cheating.
3. My youngest son is on his last night at the school play and is acting in an extra understudy role this evening; I saw him on stage last night. Appreciating seeing him flourish. Older son was into track and field, so that was a different (also fabulous) scene. Seeing my kids enjoying themselves is a true joy.

This was a #theatricalproduction occurring in real time, in which the audience could interact with the characters. The #FouthWall was not broken, but instead made porous, allowing the audience to enter the character's reality. What an opportunity for a teacher & students.
From today's viewpoint it was a glorious moment of creative potential, undeveloped. Trying this now, even before #Twitter's Musking-up, would likely be disastrous.
Are there still possibilities for new art on #SocialMedia?

Back in the Dark Ages (2010), when I was still teaching, I posted (on my #MediaLiteracy blog) about educators adapting their teaching modes to the #SocialMedia audience. In particular, I looked at the first social network #theatricalproduction, Such Tweet Sorrow. What excited me at the time, was that this production was an attempt to create a piece of #TheatreArt with in the #CodesandConventions of a new #MassMedium - #Twitter. #Theatre #Art #TheatreArt
